POGGIO AL TESORO
Poggio al Tesoro is one of the leading estates in Bolgheri, Tuscany's internationally acclaimed wine region, and is owned by the prestigious Allegrini family of Veneto. Established in 2001, the estate was created with the ambition of producing world-class Super Tuscan wines that combine the unique terroir of the Tuscan coast with the Allegrini family's generations of winemaking expertise. Today, Poggio al Tesoro is recognised as one of Bolgheri's benchmark producers, crafting elegant, age-worthy wines that consistently receive international acclaim.
The estate comprises more than 70 hectares of vineyards spread across several carefully selected sites throughout Bolgheri. These vineyards benefit from a unique combination of Mediterranean sunshine, cooling sea breezes from the Tyrrhenian Sea, and diverse soils including clay, sand, gravel, and limestone. This diversity allows Poggio al Tesoro to match each grape variety to its ideal terroir, producing wines with exceptional balance, complexity, and unmistakable regional character.
Poggio al Tesoro is best known for its flagship wines including Sondraia, Il Seggio, Mediterra, Solosole, and Cassiopea. Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Petit Verdot, Syrah, and Vermentino form the backbone of the portfolio. Sondraia, the estate's iconic Bordeaux-style blend, delivers remarkable depth, structure, and ageing potential, while Il Seggio offers generous dark berry fruit, spice, and silky tannins. Solosole has become one of Bolgheri's benchmark Vermentinos, combining vibrant citrus, white peach, floral aromas, and refreshing mineral acidity.
Winemaking combines meticulous vineyard management with modern precision. Individual vineyard parcels are harvested separately to preserve their unique character before fermentation in temperature-controlled stainless steel. The premium red wines mature in carefully selected French oak barriques, while the whites are vinified to maximise freshness, purity, and aromatic expression. Every stage of production is guided by the philosophy of allowing each vineyard site to express its individual identity while maintaining elegance and balance.
Poggio al Tesoro has earned widespread recognition from leading critics including James Suckling, Wine Spectator, Robert Parker's Wine Advocate, and Decanter, with many vintages receiving outstanding scores. The estate has become one of Bolgheri's most respected producers, standing alongside the region's finest names while continuing to elevate the global reputation of Super Tuscan wines.
